This atlas is one of the
more common of the historic maps of Chenango County - one or more being
found in any good local history collection, and atlases of similar date
and quality are found for almost every county in the state. It is
in book form and each township has its own page and many villages and hamlets
have separate inset maps. These maps are wonderfully detailed, showing
land divisions (tracts and lots), houses, mills, cemeteries, roads, and
a great variety of geographical features. Being the third generation
of the mass-produced all-encompassing maps of the area, there are fewer
errors in the situation of the lots and roads, but some few are still present.

There are portions of two tracts in the Town of Pitcher:

DeRuyter Township Lots 55 to 144 and Brakel Township Lots 1 to 27.

An INDEX of Names
and Businesses
is available for this portion of the 1875 map
